The Republicans Of Chicago, have !.

The Republicans of Chicago, have
nominated John A. Roche for mayor
The Labor candidate is man named
Nelson. while the Democrats have re-
nominated the champion of the gam
blers and boodlers, Carter Ii. Harri-
son. Certer gave out that he would
not be n candidate, but the nomination
was forced" upon him. The Tribune
thus paraphrases from Don Juan:
And Carriers voice was lost, except in signs,
Until too late for usefdl conversation;
The tears were gushing from his gentle eyes,
] wish indeed they had not had occasion;
But who, alas. can love and then be wise.
Not that remorse did not oppose temptation,
little still he strove and much repented,
And whispering Il will ne'er consent" con
sented."

writing these letters and have no objec,
beyond the hope OF interesting our
readers. Wisconsin is probsbly the
finest state ia the Union. everything
considered, and Grant is her finest
county. 1t is good enough place for
u to live in and we have no intention
of omigrating, nor do We advise others
tcdo so. But TO all who can afford a
pleasure trip, and TO those seeking out
side investments, aud TO those who are
bouad to emigrate, we say "visit the
New South" Next Thursday will APP
pear an article on Birmingham, and
succeeding letters will describe the
sniallsr towns of Decatur, Sheffield,
Tuscaloosa, Admission and Gadsden, in
Alabama, and perhaps Chattanooga
aud some other towns in Tennessee.

Carter Harrison has gwen to the press
letter in which he withdraws his name
as n candidate for reelection to the
mayoralty of Chicago. His. reasons are
the charges, that he betrayed friend
by accepting the nomination after he had
once withdrawn in another's favor, and
the hostility of the press and of those
closely identified with the national
government. Perhaps another reason
is that Discretion is the better part of
valor"

Handsome Ben LIE Fevre.
From the CAicaao Neans.


Congressman Ben LIE Fevre of Ohio. is a
large and handsome bachelor, and has
suave manners. He spends a good deal
OF his time entertaining the ladies who
visit the capitol, and is found in the
ladies' gallery as often as IN his seat. The
walters In the restaurant always expect
him down with one of his lady friends
about 80 O'Clock. and usually save up
something nice. He treats all his favor
ties impartially, butdislikes q crowd, and
never invites more than one to lunch with
him. Mr.. lie Fevre has adopted a system
OF signals for communicating with his
lady friends, and has given the key to
quite number of them, for he is not de-
voted to any particular one. When he
wants lazy to lunch with him. for in
stance, he makes sign toward the gall
lery where she is sitting and she, like
Davy Crocketps coon, comes down, so
that be being heavy-waIsted man and
short OF breath, will not have to climb the
stairs. Some OF the member who sit
alongside OF LIE Fevre in the House have
tumbled to this signal business, having
seen it going on for year or more, and
now watch the Ohio statesman 10 see
what the effect is. One of them says when
they saw LIE Fevre signal the words
"COme down to lunch with me-" yester-
day, they went out into the corridor to
see VINO the lady was. To their surprise
they found LIE Fevre trying to dodge into
a committee room. 1t so happened that
the galleries were pretty well crowded
with people, and MIR. LIE Fevre's lady
friends were we'll represented. When he
gave the signal to particular one the
rest saw 1t, and, supp0sing that it was
intended for them, each left her seat, and
the six met in the corridor, all strangers
to each other. AS he had sworn upon his
credentials as Congressman that he
loved each solely. and alone. he did not
know what might happen If he met the
crowd in the corridor, and lodged into the
committee room just In time to escape.
When l repeated the story to Mr.. LIE
Fevre he declared there was not word
Of truth in il, and insisted that the six
ladies were all soliciting subscriptions for
benevolent purposes. He would have con-
tributed to one or two of them, but did
not like to give away money to charity by
wholesale, and when he saw so many he
lodged them, as any other Congressman
would have done.
